DreamWeaversDesigns is the name of my small business. I make and sell my work on Artfire, my website {DreamWeaversDesigns.net} and at craft shows throughout the year. Having a blog seemed a logical addition. My goal is to share information about my business and varied aspects of my work. I love polymer clay and hope to encourage others who may have a dream of their own.

The cool days of August

It's only a few days into August and we are having beautiful weather. All the windows are open and the breeze is blowing in. It almost feels like the start of Fall...and I love it!

We had a show recently at a local fire hall flea market. There were a lot of open spaces; we aren't sure why so many people didn't show, unless they were anticipating storms. The week before was pretty wet. Even the customers were few and far between. There were vendors with flea market items as well as some crafters.

Here's a shot of our set-up....

We decided to go light with our items, due to the possibility of a storm mixed with the projected heat and short show hours.

I dedicated one table to my polymer and kumihimo...

The other table had a mix of beaded jewelry and polymer frames, bowls, buttons and a clock...

The day was slow but our neighbor vendor mentioned a Fall show coming up in October. I hadn't heard of the show before, but, was able to speak to the coordinator of the show and learned it was a two day event at a large fairground.

The application for the show is complete and now the rush is on to build up my inventory. I'm hoping the location and size of this show brings in a lot of shoppers getting ready for Christmas. Stay tuned to see what's been on my work table.
